Strange Music

By DOROTHY QUICK

I once heard elfin music
When the moon was low;
And I saw elfin shadows
Dancing to and fro.

I once heard elfin music
When the moon was low
So now I hear that music
Wherever I may go.

Since then no other music
Can quicken my heart's beat
And never comes a rhythm
That tempts my dancing feet.
